Report An Emergency
To Report an Oil Spill
If you see spilled oil, the law requires you to make two toll-free calls:
- Call the 24-hour Louisiana Emergency Hazardous Materials Hotline at 877-925-6595
- Call the National Response Center at 800-424-8802
State Police
Toll-Free Hotline: 877-925-6595
All environmental emergencies related to Oil & Gas Incidents, Injection Wells, E&P Waste, or Pipelines should be immediately reported to the State Police so that the appropriate response personnel will be deployed.
The Office of State Police will notify the Office of Conservation to coordinate response efforts. However, we encourage you to utilize our 24-hour Service to notify the Office of Conservation after contacting the State Police.
Reportable accidents/incidents on jurisdictional pipelines must be reported to the pipeline incident number.
